Previously, Edgar Pierce had lost to Guild Leader Loki so quickly and devastatingly that the latter didn't even need to fight against him that much in order to win. He simply used a few schemes and made him fall into a trap. After that, he had no other choice left but to surrender. Otherwise, he would burn to death.

At that time, Edgar Pierce regretted many things that he did not do when he had the chance to do them earlier before he had fallen into Guild Leader Loki's trap.

However, Edgar Pierce swore to have his revenge against Guild Leader Loki at this moment. And this time, he will not fight cautiously against the latter anymore. He will fight as recklessly as possible since he believes that Guild Leader Loki won't be able to think of any plan in his head if there is someone constantly disturbing him.

"I reckon that we only have a few seconds before Osborne could get back here. So…

" Edgar Pierce didn't finish his line as he swiftly lunged himself forward towards Guild Leader Loki.

Gripping his Death Wake Dagger tightly, Leo also lunges himself towards Edgar Pierce. Unlike before, he was no longer afraid of going into a frontal clash against the latter. The reason for that is simply because Edgar Pierce is injured and has broken some of his bones on top of that. Without a doubt, this is an excellent opportunity for him to try to eliminate Edgar Pierce and remove him from the Battle Royal.

Edgar Pierce felt a bit strange after seeing Guild Leader Loki going for a frontal clash against him. Knowing the latter, he should be running around while thinking of a scheme to defeat him. But it didn't take him that long to realize that it should be because he's currently injured and had broken a few of his bones after receiving a direct hit from the explosion earlier ago.

"Tch! So, this time you aren't going to rely on your schemes anymore since I am injured,

" Edgar Pierce coldly scoffed.

"Don't make it sound like I am taking advantage of you. The only reason why you got injured is because of me. So, there's nothing strange with my action,

" Leo defended himself.

It would only be counted as taking advantage if Edgar Pierce was injured before the Battle Royal began. However, since it was him who had injured Edgar Pierce, thus he has every right to use the latter's disadvantage to his advantage.

Clangggg! Clang! Clang! Clangggg!

A series of metal hitting against metal sound echoed throughout the place as Loe's Death Wake Dagger made contact with Edgar Pierce's lance.

With every thrust that Edgar Pierce made with his lance, the power he exerted grew increasingly weaker.

Honestly, that was the main reason why Edgar Pierce wanted to fight against Guild Leader Loki right now. If he prolongs the time, his situation would just turn even more worst. He really didn't expect that something as severe as this would happen to him after directly receiving the explosion earlier ago. Fortunately, it hasn't gotten so worst yet to the point that he will have to surrender in the Battle Royal.

Regardless, Leo was able to notice Edgar Pierce's current state. As such, he didn't hesitate to exert even more effort in trying to wear out more of the latter's stamina and energy. With the current state of Edgar Pierce, the moment his stamina and energy get low, his attack won't have any significant damage to them anymore.

Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!

Leo and Edgar Pierce continued exchanging their attacks.

After tens of seconds passed, Edgar Pierce finally realized what Guild Leader Loki intended to do.

"You want to wear out my stamina and energy?

" Edgar Pierce smile cunningly.

All of a sudden, Edgar Pierce jumped a few tens of meters to the rear.

Following that, Osborne charges straight from Edgar Pierce's previous location.

Leo was completely caught off guard by the sudden arrival of Osborne. Because of that, he directly received a shield bash from the latter, causing him to retreat a few meters to his rear and at the same time feel a bit dizzy on his head.

"Shit!

" Leo swore.

After quickly pulling himself together, Leo decided to distance himself from Osborne and wait for what the latter would do next before making his counterattack.

With the way Osborne fights, Leo can't just casually launch an attack like what he always does to Edgar Pierce. One bad mistake, and there's a huge possibility that he would seriously get injured. He doesn't want that to happen. So, the best-case scenario is to wait for how Osborne would react and adapt the best possible course of action afterward.

Thankfully, Leo didn't need to wait for long. Not long after he received Osborne's attack, Edgar Pierce swiftly launches his attack on the latter. Hence, Osborne turned his attention away from him and towards Edgar Pierce.

Seeing this, Leo didn't waste any time and raised his hand to cast a Magic spell,

"Earth Wall!

"

Whooosh! Whoooosh!

Two huge earth walls immediately appeared on the right side and left side of Osborne. As a result, he was unable to raise his shield to block Edgar Pierce's attack.

"Damn you!

" Osborne exclaimed as he quickly tried his best to reposition himself where he could use his shield to block before Edgar Pierce could come.

"As if I would let you do that!

" Edgar Pierce cast a Speed Increase spell to make his movement faster. Because of that, he arrived in front of Osborne under a few breaths.

Whoooosh! Whoooosh! Whoooosh!

Edgar Pierce made a series of thrusts with his lance towards Osborne's body.

"Argh! Argh! Argh!

" Osborne cries in pain. He grunted as he got his left arm out of the wall. Swiftly, he raised his shield in front of him to block from Edgar Pierce's lance.

Just when Edgar Pierce felt a bit of relief with his shield protecting him, he suddenly felt pain in his back.

"Argh!

"

Without even needing for him to look behind, Osborne could already guess that it was Guild Leader Loki who attacked him just now. And seeing the small puddle of water on the ground and his armor being slightly wet, he quickly realized that Guild Leader Loki had cast a Water Element Magic spell to attack him. Though not much damage was done to him due to the armor that his currently wearing. Except….

"This is bad,

" Osborne muttered under his breath. Now that the ground is wet with water, he would be unable to exert that much force. Otherwise, he would slip to the floor. By then, he would face an even bigger problem with his entire body being left open for Edgar Pierce to attack.

That was precisely what Leo wanted. He knew that his Water Jet spell wouldn't be able to deal that much damage to Osborne. So, he thought of making it difficult for him to block Edgar Pierce's attack instead.

"You shouldn't have positioned yourself right at the very center of the two of us. Now, you have to deal with Edgar Pierce and me at the same time,

" Leo said mockingly at Osborne. In his opinion, what the latter had done just now was very stupid. Even though he had successfully hit him, it still ended with him getting encircled by two people. If he was in his shoes, he would swiftly get himself out of that place after hitting someone else. Unfortunately, it's already too late for Osborne to do that.

"Earth wall!

" Leo created another batch of earth walls to hinder Osborne's movement while the latter was busy dealing with Edgar Pierce.

"Well done, Guild Leader Loki!

" Edgar Pierce felt delighted after seeing Osborne having difficulty blocking his attack.

"Tell me honestly…. Are the two of you teaming up now?!

" Osborne can't help asking.

"Didn't you see me beating the crap out of Edgar Pierce just now?

" Leo shook his head. He added,

"If that's what you called teaming up, then I believe what we are doing right now is also teaming up,

"

"So, you're telling me that I just happened to be the target for the both of you?

" Osborne felt a bit disbelief.

"Why else?

" Leo and Edgar Pierce replied in unison.

It was exactly as they said. Regardless of the person, as long as they are in the same situation as Osborne, they will take advantage of that to eliminate them or deal as much damage as possible.

Needless to say, Leo won't just focus on Osborne, especially now that Osborne and Edgar Pierce are in the same location.

"A few of my earth walls are already in a good position. So, all I have to do now is to cover a bit more location, and Osborne and Edgar Pierce would be trapped,

" Leo muttered to himself.

While making sure that neither Osborne nor Edgar Pierce would notice him, Leo slowly made his way to another location where he could cast more Earth Wall spells.
